Aim: Tibial shaft fractures are the most common type of long-bone fractures. External fixation (EF) and intramedullary nailing (IMN) are widely used surgical techniques for the definitive fixation of open tibial shaft fractures. The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to compare EF to IMN for the definitive fixation of open tibial fractures.

This systematic review aimed to identify the public knowledge about the common arthritic conditions in Saudi Arabia.
Methods: We searched MEDLINE, Embase, and CENTRAL for relevant literature.
Article Synopsis
- The fifth metatarsal base avulsion fracture, known as a pseudo-Jones fracture, is a prevalent foot injury that can be treated either through surgery or conservatively.
- A systematic review analyzed randomized controlled trials to compare the effectiveness of orthotic removable support versus short-leg casting for treating this fracture.
- Findings showed no significant differences in clinical outcomes, pain levels, or non-union rates between the two treatment methods, suggesting that both approaches are equally effective for managing pseudo-Jones fractures.
Study Design: Systematic review and meta-analysis.
Introduction: The use of volar locking plate (VLP) in the fixation of fracture fragments promised a new era in the management of distal radius fracture (DRF).
Purpose Of The Study: To compare the patient-reported outcomes, functional outcomes, pain, and adverse events between the different periods of immobilization following open reduction and internal fixation of DRFs with VLP.
